I think adding some apple cider vinegar can really enhance the tanginess! It balances the sweetness nicely, though don’t overdo it!

Definitely! To amp up the flavor in Carolina BBQ sauce, try adding some honey or brown sugar for sweetness, a splash of apple cider vinegar for tang, and a dash of hot sauce for heat! You can also mix in smoked paprika for that extra depth. Let it simmer for a bit to meld those flavors!
